Please do, and consider adding to and/or making suggestions to accumulator -- why should we all re-invent this wheel? To be far, you can do what you need by accumulating in a python list, then making an array out of it when you are done -- and it will probably be faster, but *may* take more memory. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [email protected] _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list [email protected] http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
